Registration
To properly use the full functionality of the Manx Forums board, you will be required to register. While registering you will be asked to enter a code from an image on the page, this is there to combat registration bots spamming the board. Also once you have complete your registration you will be asked to validate your account by confirming your email address, this is done for security reasons. You can resend your validation e-mail at the following link https://www.manxforums.com/forums/index.php?/lostpassword/ (be sure to check junk mail)
Security
When posting on the board, your IP address is logged. This is only viewable by the board administrators and will only be used for account security purposes and investigation following user reports.
There is a 30-second post delay in place to stop post spamming, and you may only register with one username per email address.
Freshers
When you join the Manx Forums, you will be automatically placed in the 'Fresher' group. You will be restricted from starting new topics until you have replied to someone else's topic first. You will be promoted to a full member once you have posted your first reply. This is one of our anti-spam measures.
